All accepted chapbooks submitted to Scars Publications will be released on line as a free downloadable PDF file (as Scars Publications has consistently done for years). They will not be available for print chapbook sale, but will be considered for potential publication in a 2010 Scars Publications collection book release. If a chapbook accepted is long enough, it may also be released as a physical ISBN# book (even if submitted as a magazne submission, which normally receives the magazine’s ISSN#).     Starting in 2011: Whether or not many chapbooks are submitted for consideration by any author, only one chapbook from any author will be released in any year.     Scars Publications has in the past converted some chapbooks to 6x9 perfect-bound ISBN# books. But starting in 2013, as a rule Scars Publications will not release additional books from new chapbooks from people who have already had books published in this fashion from Scars Publications. (For example, if someone had a chapbook published through Scars Publications in 2011 that was also released as an ISBN# perfect-bound book, they will not have the option from Scars to have any additional chapbook manuscripts to also released as a book.) It is far too expensive and time-consuming for Scars to release these books, so we will not do ths for authors repeatedly.
